I am looking for a good budget gaming pc .. And I have already collected some parts :).. All I want from you is to tell me if all thesepparts can be connected together... If the psu w is enough.. And suggest me one of these 2 cases.. :

Coolermaster n200 black

OR

Coolermaster k380 black


My pc parts are these :) :

Cpu : amd a6 6400K 3.9 ghz

Ram : Kingston 2 x 4gb ddr3 1866 mhz

Motherboard : asrock killer retail fm2a88x+

Hdd :western digital caviar blue 1 tb

Optical drive : LG super multi dvd rewriter sata black

Psu : Psu be quiet! System power 7 450w

.. That's all :) so that's all ':) if you have some better parts to suggest me I would like to check them :) so.. Is the psu OK? Are all of these parts connectable? And.. What case of these 2?

Thanks :)

Also.. I'lluse this ppc only for games like league of legends or minecraft or cod... So.. It's everything OK? :)

At first you mobo is overpriced for this bulid no need to sink this amount off money to mobo:
Below bulid that can be later OC with better CPU cooler and is significant better in gaming.
Rams can be easily tweaked to 2133 ( additional gaming performance)
About case better chose cheaper and put more money for CPU :)
A6 is only 2 cores CPU A8 4 cores

None of you gave me a good answer.. The first one told me a totally different build.. And the other on changed the cpu.. This cpu is fine for minecraft and league of legends.. I just need a suggestion for 1 of these 2 cases that I reffered.. And if the psu is ok.. And if all these parts are going to boot.. And work :)

Hmm.. Your build seems to be good.. But what about mine.. Cause I also want to record some videos... Or use photoshop or something... So.. I just want to answer the questions.. That I mentioned on my topic...
 
About your bulid is unbalanced, high end expensive mobo + low end CPU, PSu is ok but for such bulid you can chose cheaper Antec.
Rams 1866 limit iGPU in your CPU *( I myself chose 1866 but in model that can be tweaked easily to 2133)
About case chose cheaper both are good quality. I chose Thermaltake VL80001W2Z becasue is cheaper but still decent quality.

What is your budget, and country ?
Because in each country prices shifts and price can change up to 30% some times need rebuild entire PC to match budget.
 
394.61 € * I put more expensive rams no need tweaking ( only 5 euros difference) and better CPU A8-7650K

This PC can be in future upgrade with better GPU, and CPU can be OC. * Need better cooler and some additional airflow on VRM section / heatsinks.

Small alternative if you not afraid some ram bios tweaking * I can direct you.
Swap in bulid:
Ram: http://www.e-shop.gr/ram-corsair-cmz8gx3m2a1600c9r-vengeance-8gb-2x4gb-pc3-12800-dual-channel-kit-red-p-PER.549300
Mobo: http://www.e-shop.gr/mitriki-asus-a88xm-plus-retail-p-PER.523162
And you have this same after ram tweaking but CPU OC in future will be easier heatsinks already on Mobo :)
 
So.. What if I use your build... But select the other ram ( corsair) that you mentioned.. And the other motherboard.. Will the psu be the same? Will I be able to connect all these things?
 

For both you questions yes parts will be compatible.

And third option, if you do not want tweak ram increase budget to 403.95 € or try ask about some additional discount in shop ( you buying entire PC in one shop call to them / write email).

403.95 € build :)

I love your third option 😛.. But do you think that I won't need a VGA for my games? Like minecraft, league of legends, or recording?.. I think that I won't need cause cpu and mobo have good graphics already... What do you think?
 


For this games this CPU have more than sufficient iGPU, in future you can upgrade this PC by adding Discrete GPU.
